What do I need to take corners as fsst as I want to or can for a reasonable amount of money?

coil overs and adjustable shocks on the highest settings, sway bars, and good strut tower bars, and most importantly- good tires.

ya i understand all this but would brands would be recommended, also can someone please explain to me what all these different "bars" do?

luder94si · 01-08-2003, 07:30 PM

for a reasonable amount of money:
KYB adjustable shocks (~$300)
H&R Sports or Race Springs($150-$200)
Neuspeed or Progress Rear Sway Bar ($250-$300)
and like the last poster said: good tires!!!

Do a search and you'll be amazed at all the good suspension set-ups that you can find

I am going to save my cash and get a set of Teins

vile10 · 01-09-2003, 12:47 AM

Teins = $800

AGX + H&R = $450

Si4WS · 01-09-2003, 01:21 AM

Ground Control with KYB AGX =

here.

Koni Yellows + Ground controls

I love my Teins. More expensive be worth it!

92 SI Ludester · 01-09-2003, 12:39 PM

i have this setup

Koni Yellows
Eibach Sportlines
Spoon tiebars
Suspension Techniques sway bars

I love it and would recomend it to everyone

willmbrk · 01-09-2003, 12:55 PM

I really want to go with Teins, but I doubt I can front the cash, and I really need shocks right now. I am debating between Koni yellows and KYB AGX. I am also thinking of going H&R Sports or Ground Control down the road. Should I save the cash, and get both installed at once, or get the shocks now?

red92si · 01-09-2003, 01:14 PM

I love my GroundControls... now I just need some AGX's.

SoFlaLude · 01-09-2003, 01:22 PM

For the money I'd say the Tanabe Sustec front and rear strut tie bars are a great deal at $100 a pop. Suspension Techniques sway bay kit for $250. KYB AGX shocks, or if you can spring for the Neuspeed version of the Koni yellow adjustable shocks go for those, and Neuspeed Race/Sport springs (depends on the drop and stiffness you want). Cap it off with a set of Bridgestone Potenza S-03 Pole Position tires, or Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's if you're more budget conscious.

blacklude4k · 01-09-2003, 06:52 PM

anybody else got any opinions. suggestions, or comments?

WaZabee · 01-10-2003, 11:34 AM

TEINS is definitely worth it. Coilover just simply owns, adjustable height, and ride. i would save up for it. too bad we don't own a rwd car. no drifting =\

I think the Neuspeed front bar would be a better option, seeing as it is about the same price, and it is an amazingly designed piece. Tanabe would be good for the rear though.

willmbrk · 01-10-2003, 12:40 PM

Yeah, I am going to save for Teins. I spoke with a local dealer, and they highly recommended the Teins.

vile10 · 01-10-2003, 12:53 PM

i am getting my suspension in a month, probably AGX w/ H&R, that's $295 + ~$145, hopefully it's good set up
